Does anyone know of a source for 40kWh Leaf modules? I'm looking for 8.
I guess complete 40kWh packs are all being snapped up for 24kWh upgrades?

Price keeps going up like they are made of gold. I guess supply (i.e. chrashed cars, :twisted: ) cant keep up with demand.

Ah thanks - that's what I figured. Looks like a lot of demand right now!

Thanks Paul. Looks like it'll be cheaper to buy a crashed Leaf and sell the spares (!)

It's crazy. Even the early Leafs go for a lot in North America. 24kWh models that are totally unrepairable still go for over $3500 regularly. I've resorted to assembling my own battery pack with used Merc hybrid modules and buying other components off ebay/local wrecking yards. Donor leafs just aren't as economical as they used to be.
